Why do I get an error message at the time of submission/uploading of return ?

Answer: It could generally happen due to incorrect data or non-filling of mandatory fields. Rectify the errors until there are no further error messages. Please do not use any Special Characters such as -, _, &, !, ^, <, >, #, ~, %, or * while doing data entry since it may cause an error while generating XML file or while uploading the XML file.

    1. Arv says:

      Since I got the same error I know how to solve it
      Download the JSON file and view it in a json viewer. You can find one online using Google
      In the JSON viewer, look for IntermediaryCity: and backspace/delete unnecessary spaces and leave only the city name in the quotation mark eg:- “Mumbai” .
      Save the JSON file after making the change and upload the draft JSON using ITR e-Filing utility which can be downloaded from itr website downloads
